Last night I submitted my application for a full time position at Weber State as an Assistant Professor in their School of Nursing. I am so nervous/excited that I can't stand it.
I want this SO bad. At opening faculty meeting this year, I had this gut-feeling that I belonged there full-time. My light bulb went on: "I should be doing this full-time."
Since then, I've longed to have an office on campus and more than two clinicals to teach. I'm ready to use my degree to it's fullest. I want to serve on curriculum committees, advise students, be part of an academic environment. I have been teaching there as an adjunct for 3 years so I already know the pros (and the very few cons) of the working environment. I know most of the staff there already. I know the classes; hell, I took the classes (and survived them, thankyouverymuch). Weber is a huge part of my life already; now I just need to become a part of Weber. They gave me the best education I could have asked for and now I can re-pay them by giving other students that same wonderful education!
